We'll be in Germany for a week as we attend a conference. The kiddos get to come too so it'll be an exciting trip. They are hoping for snow while we're there and I think there's a good possibility that: A) There will be snow B) We will freeze our butts off C) We'll be thankful to return to the mild climate of Portugal!
We used to live in Germany (for 2 years) so it'll be exciting to go back. I'm not hopeful that we'll remember any German--the little that we learned almost 10 years ago has vanished! One funny story about trying to learn a little German: I mastered (or so I thought) the numbers so when we ordered drinks or food I could use German. But, it seemed that every time I tried to order 2 I got 3....so eventually, like any good person would do, I just started drinking 2 cokes while Hannah had one. I would even order wrong with other things like tickets and just pass the extra ticket to the person behind us. Nice!

ha! I lived in Germany 20 years ago. (I was in 2nd grade). As I was reading this post I was trying to remember how to count in German. I'm a wee bit rusty. And I can totally see how 2 and 3 would lead to all that confusion! Hope you all enjoy your time.
